You might try getting a pet then, they'll love you unconditionally and you don't need to worry about them going off and getting married to someone else.

Nice thought, and I have a pet anyway, but it's barely equal. Human contact. conversations all that, is what I need.

Yeah, there is no way in hell a pet can replace a human. There's many reasons why not, but one of the bigger ones is pets don't live long anyway. I mean a dog is lucky to live 12 years or so. Same with a cat. Pets love unconditionally? Coulda fooled me. A lot of people I know with pets have had them run away and not come back.

I've known several people (mostly friends of friends) that are happier about being single when they get a pet and because of that aren't worried so much about getting into a relationship. And it usually worked out for them later on when they felt they could afford to be "picky". Many of them are still happily married.

As for the unconditionally, you're thinking of dogs. Not cats (whom I adore as opposed to dogs).

Well it's hard to say since we can't ask animals, but generally even cats come back to you after they've been angry with you for a while.

Friends and/or family generally help fill that void. You have conversations on this very forum.

Don't let loneliness turn you into that guy. I can tell you from experience that being single is definitely preferable to finding out, years in, that the person you love and trust doesn't love you back.

i still would rather have loved and lost than to never have loved at all

Loved and lost; sure. Loved and betrayed, publically humiliated, made to feel like half a man then, finally, abandoned; not so much.

Loneliness is awful. It's hell. But the worst part about it is the lengths people will go to to alleviate it. The terrible people they'll allow into their lives, the mistreatment they'll tolerate because they think that any attention is better than none.

hate how we guys almost always have to initiate

You'll learn someday. The trouble is, it won't happen until you've had your heart broken, and then you'll wish you'd listened. The point of dating/marrying someone is to be with someone who makes you happy; someone you can truly love. There's no love if someone's getting used or otherwise treated like sh**. And having your heart broken is one of the most painful experiences in life... At least it was for me.

Have you ever heard of unrequited love?
Watching that person get married to somebody else, or become pregnant, knowing that you still love them regardless?
I'd rather take a week of any love going, than to keep on going without.

No, not at all. Every single female I've ever desired just fell right into my hands... What kind of question is that? Also, I'm curious here, but when you say you LOVE this person, have you ever actually had any sort of relationship with her, or did you lust after her from afar? Because the latter is not love. You can't love someone you don't truly even know. Also, digging thru her garbage to get to "know" her doesn't count either... not that I'm suggesting that's what you did, I'm just saying. I don't know your specific situation.

Good point. :lol:

I think a turtle would be about the only pet I would want, but it's still not better than human relationships. IMO. Although turtles are cute.

wow. This thread got interesting.
1- was not about me dating a mean hot girl it was trying to find out if men would keep dating a rude hot women
similiar to women who keep dating a confidence good looking a**hole
2- I said ''b***h'' yeah, so. to wiggins or any women who got offended by it. what would you do if
you had a female friend that start out nice but then turn on you, made fun of you, and spread
nasty rumors of you. Would you think highly of that former female friend.

So a man can't call a women a ''b***h'' if she rude to him and shows no respect to him
but a woman can call a man a ''creep'' because he approach her and is ugly or just socialy akward.

I'm not telling you to be content with being single. I'm telling you to not be content being with a crazy biatch who doesn't really love you. If your options are be single or be with someone who doesn't really care about you, you ARE better off being single and should be content knowing that fact. That doesn't mean you shouldn't desire a girlfriend or seek one out.

Also, I think you're wrong here, because I hear this type of advice given to women much more often than men... Usually it's women who are prone to entering into abusive relationships out of fear of just being alone.

Congratulations, you got it now! Welcome to Feminism's version of "equality."

Stad, I've been a fan of a lot of your posts, but I have to say your war against feminism is disturbing.

Feminism is about equality, not a debate about superiority of either sex. I wish people (especially on this thread) understood it and would stop fueling pointless arguing that makes none feel good nor offers any help.

i would rather be in a bad, negative relationship than to not be in any relationship at all just to get the experience

That may be what it's supposed to be but very rarely is.
